On my wh-1000xm2, wh-1000xm3, wf-1000xm4 and lastly wf-1000xm5, there is a quite high frequency pitch (usually coincides with some public transport beeps, and some accidental squeaking of doors) that toggles ANC to transparent mode automatically. I remember reading something about this on Sony's support website.
Terranova, Ark, Prometheus, Atlas, vulcan... + the whole roaster of open positions. Sounds like AInnovation slop on highest temp setting just went on a wild fishing session for the cringiest names in recent scifi blockbusters.
